I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Some suggestions that I can give to you are:
-Wash your hands before touching or cleaning your piercing. -Clean around the piercing with a saltwater rinse three times a day. -Don't use alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, or antibiotic ointments. -Don't remove the piercing. -Clean the piercing on both sides of your earlobe.
Hope my answer was helpful.
